Resident noticeboard

We recognise that in some neighbourhoods, waste collection has been less frequent. This situation affects not just THCH, but is a borough-wide concern. In response, we have attempted to manage excess waste by using tonne sacks. However, due to health and safety guidelines, we have been advised against this practice.

Should you notice any missed collections, please continue to report them to the Council. 

Remember that you can also get bulky items collected by the Council. Residents get two free collections per year. You can book your free collection on the council's website. Please keep the bulky items indoors until your collection date. You can then label the bulky items and inform us that you have left items out for the Council to collect. 

Leaving items out without informing us could lead to them being treated as fly tipping, potentially incurring additional charges for residents.

Please note, the bulk waste collection is a Council service, and not THCH. 

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
